    Mirroring other effusive comments, Mr. Hoffman does an admirable presentation that even transfixed my wife! As a retired sales executive from IBM, Scott has the personality and presence that I liked to see in all of my sales and systems engineering candidates! He even uses a technique IBM teaches our personnel who will have the opportunity to address large groups of people with varying degrees of expertise. We informally called it the "Tell them what you're going to tell them, Tell them, Tell them what you told them" technique! He's a natural! Kudos to Sandy for recognizing this young engineer's talent and recruiting him! BTW, I'm expecting a delivery of my quad-motor R1S this November. In part, Munro Live is responsible for the extra push I needed to finalize my three-year-old configuration and invest in Rivian. I just hope I have the patience to endure the start-up service issues of this "bleeding-edge" company!

    From a die casting background, I am impressed with the design and quality of the aluminum die cast parts and aluminum extrusions that are used in these drive units. Even with the extensive use of CAD and CAM machining, they are still pretty elaborate tools with multi axis core arraignments, lots of secondary machining to precision tolerances. All on a very low production number.

    Thank you. I don’t believe I even blinked during this video. Superb presentation. My compliments to Scott Hoffman as he definitely communicates in a way that is comfortable for me. I particularly liked his approach of “let’s set some High-Level Context” as opposed to saying let’s jump right in. This works well for me as I like to understand the framework architecture of all the components before proceeding with a deep dive into the components. When I heard the discussion about the axle disconnect unit my knee-jerk reaction is that kills the level 3 torque vectoring capability and I expect you cannot re-engage AWD on the fly unless there is smart software to bring the motors that are stopped back in sync with the adjacent side axles. BTW, I subscribe to the nonexistent standard that level 1 torque vectoring is braking one wheel, level 2 is a good mechanical system like Acura’s SH-AWD and level 3 is where any arbitrary torque can be applied independently to any wheel as required that you could have with Rivian’s four drive motors. You also sent me scurrying to check on specific heat for Ethylene glycol and gear oil to get a sense of how much difference in cooling capacity there may be between these systems. I shall follow you guys on linkedin.

    @thomaswindhab ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Great videos, I watch them all, especially the ones about electric drive units. Two thoughts about the technical content: (1) I'm very surprised that you have never seen a transfermolded rotor. At some companies, especially the German OEMs and suppliers, most rotors in development use transfermolding as far as I know. So you will probably encounter them a lot in the very near future. (2) I think you got the part with the keyways in the shafts the wrong way around: The correct alignment of the rotor stacks to the shaft will be easier when you have a keyway. The alignment of all the stacks (I assume that it's either four or eight stacks seeing two keyways as well as two key features on the lamination) is pretty much the only reason for having those keyways. The torque is transmitted via the shrink fit. You will probably notice that the key features do not have an interference fit with the keyways, neither in radial nor in tangential direction. The little teeth inside the Rivian/ Bosch rotor lamination on the other hand is not an alignment feature. My first assumption would be that the rotor stacks are aligned to each other (to ensure the correct skewing angle) within the transfermolding tool. As for them creating an interference, I am sure that all three of the shown rotors have interference fits between the rotor lamination stacks and the shafts. The little teeth will probably have the effect of a "rough surface" in the sense that this way it will take less normal force between the two components to transmit the same tangential force and therefore (assuming a given diameter) the same torque. What I think would be most interesting to find out is whether they use any significant axial force when pushing the stacks onto the shaft. In general it would be interesting to know whether this feature is just for minimizing stresses within the lamination stack in the product or whether they can also lower the temperature that they have to heat the stacks to before joining. Best case for them would be to have the necessary temperature be right around or even below the temperature needed for transfermolding (usually around 180 °C). What one could do to find out whether they were pressed on by force is to cut the lamination stack away (maybe using angle grinder or a saw) so they can be removed without moving them in axial direction. If you do that, you should see whether the marks are all in their respective single spots or whether you have elongated scratch marks along the way from the side that they were pushed onto the shaft. A less hands-on way of finding out would probably be to find the patent for this and hope that the information is in there.
    That's my technical opinion of what I saw in the video, please tell me if I got anything wrong or you got your own ideas to add to this.
    Greetings from Germany :)

    The engineers at Munro are really very good at what they do and any company that cooperates with them cannot go wrong. It is all about saving money on design and keeping the business afloat. The trap that so many companies have fallen into is because they don''t plan properly how to save money on their design while maintaining the quality and lifespan of the product. Scott gives us a good view on the difference in thinking between Tesla and Rivian, and it is very pleasent to see his presentation and how much knowledge he has. The definition of MOSFET is a handful and he did it without looking at a written note before giving us the names. Impressive.

    Scott is so incredibly good at conveying information while keeping things flowing and interesting. Good vibes all around from this guy.
    I hope axle disconnects become more common among AWD EV’s. And I’m interested to see how Rivian integrates the disconnects with their dual-motor and future in-house motor setups.
    I’ve also decided that NOW IS THE TIME for the AMC Eagle to be resurrected as a boxy AWD EV wagon with sick vinyl wood decals, velvety cloth interior, and all.
    Not as some weak-ass new Grand Wagoneer reboot-in-name-only abomination either (cc: Chevy Blazer, Jeep Cherokee, “Mustang” Mach E, whatever electric Corvette SUV abomination is on the way, etc.).
    Stellantis needs to get it together. Even after the dying-off of pretty much any enthusiasm for Chrysler, they’re about to lose a metric f-ton of customer enthusiasm with the hemi’s on the way out.
    There’s so much untapped IP they own like AMC, and even old models from current marques like Chrysler that would be criminal not to fully explore resurrecting in good faith (as in a serious homage and not another soulless name-job like the new Wagoneer).
    Meanwhile, they just announced a reboot of the Avenger name of all things?!?!?!?! As a Jeep EV?!?!?!?!?!
    On the other hand, VW is bringing back the Scout as a Rivian competitor which makes all of the sense in the world. HOPEFULLY IT AIN’T ALL ROUNDED AND WEIRD THO. I want it boxy and body-on-frame-ish with plain design and sharp edges and some jazzy 70s decals, not like the product of whatever wind tunnel design BMW iX’s (or Rivian’s design tbh)
    Lastly, while GM is at it with the GMC-branded Hummer, how about a Buick-branded Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser EV wagon? It’s a vibe.
    Like, I’m 29 and I’m still nostalgic for these cars. Just putting it out there.

    I echo the kudos for Scott's presentation skills. Coming from an engineering background & owning an R1T I find these videos very informative. They help me understand what I have! My '55 Chevy was easy, the R1T is from an era I am just learning. I like the "exposed view" aspect of the way Scott & others present the components & assemblies.

    The compare/contrast part on the dual inverter vs. two separate ones was interesting.

    Interesting presentation. The Rivian units look very robust. It often makes sense for OEMs to have suppliers build parts to their specs. Subbing out stators to Bosch is no different to the ICE OEMs who sub out piston rings and bearings. Specialist suppliers already have the tooling and expertise to build parts economically.
    I recently saw a different ball-ramp disconnect clutch on a hybrid Subaru transmission in a WeberAuto detailed teardown. It seems like a dog clutch mechanism won't want to be engaged when the vehicle is in motion unless that motor is already up to speed.
    I look forward to Munro Live's take on the Lucid drive units. In Lucid's Tech Talk video they go into considerable detail and the configuration is unlike anything I have seen elsewhere. The cheaper models are just entering production now.

      @@carholic-sz3qv "Unfortunately"?
      Vertical integration has practical limits. It's not only about economics. Some companies have years or decades of experience in engineering and manufacturing the components that they sell. The resources required to engineer and tool up for a steering rack, for example, can increase cost with no tangible benefit. Suppliers work with their customers and can make changes to suit the OEM's requirements. Designing subsystems for commercial vehicles I regularly worked with suppliers to get custom versions of their standard parts.

They designes everything and goes to the specialist who can actually very efficiently and precisely make those parts and finally assemble them! The M1 chip/apple silicon is just an example of it. Finally the key to that is integration and software optimisation and support,
